The Sensory Room can be enjoyed by all ages for relaxation and therapeutic purposes and can be booked directly through the Community Centre for either one-off or recurring sessions.

It contains a wide variety of sensory stimulation such as a waterbed, interactive sound wall, infinity tunnel, bubble tubes, full HD projector with a variety of animated projections and sounds, aromatherapy diffuser, laser star projector, sound activated lighting, fibre optic curtain and fully padded flooring.

The Sensory Room fosters an atmosphere of relaxation, which is good for children and adult’s emotional health. It gives them a chance to explore their feelings and to become interested in their environment.

This calming environment is also a place for parents/carers to bond with their children, providing a restful and peaceful experience in today’s busy and sometimes stressful lifestyles.

A facility such as this has many benefits for children and adults with special needs as it creates a stimulating and yet calming atmosphere and among other things can help to improve hand-eye co-ordination and develop language skills. The overactive child can be calmed and the inactive become interested.

All young children can benefit from using a sensory room to develop fundamental sensory skills needed in later life. Sensory rooms are particularly useful for people with sight or hearing problems and have been proven to be extremely valuable to people with autism.
